On March 8, AJ was ordered to be tried as an adult for the shooting deaths of his parents. His family has maintained his innocence throughout the entire ordeal.

"Because of the magnitude of the charges against the defendant," said David Mitcham, the Trial Bureau Chief at the Harris County District Attorney's Office. "He's charged with a double homicide. In these matters, public safety comes into play."

With his release, AJ is expected to return to court on Thursday where a judge will read his bond conditions. Those conditions include: house arrest, wearing an ankle monitor and random drug testing.

According to court documents, police found a handwritten note on the kitchen counter that read, "I have been watching. Get me." The alarm system had also been turned on when the family went to bed.

Also, a fire had been set outside the bedroom of Antonio and Dawn, then extinguished, documents stated. A bottle of gasoline and pillows with bullet holes were recovered from AJ's room. Prosecutors suggested he was using them as "trial runs" in the murders, which indicated he had a plan.

Although AJ is charged with capital murder, he is not eligible for the death penalty because of his age at the time of the murders.
